Your 2020 has an entirely different trans/clutch package than your 17.
I've driven many different trans packages and every one was vastly different...even between cars of the same type/year. The clutch IS very light. I have gotten used to mine and I kind of like it.....very easy on my beat up...
Correct. There is no cutout like on the stock bumper.
If you had a smaller tire, it might be NARROW enough that it wouldnt matter. But 33s wont work without their carrier which just relocates the stock carrier up and away.
Right...but by design, a torque converter separates the output of the engine and the input of the tranny gears with fluid...so it is simply like feathering the clutch with a higher revving motor to keep it in the sweet spot electronically. Im not talking drag racing here so i dont care about...
i have no complaints about mine at all....and certainly no complaint with the manual tranny. I think it is great and the super low first kinda negates the lack of low end torque of the motor. Wish it had a bit more juice between 1000 and 2000 rpm. Bit it is what it is. I still love my Rubicon...
The auto has a torque converter, which is a bit of a game changer as it allows the gutless minivan motor to rev and stay in the power band. New manual owners take a while to figure out that you gotta rev it to use it properly. I goose the throttle once before i take off in first. The motor is...
@JJT-NC, as long as you stay off the highway and dont heat the tires, youll be fine for 3 days at 20psi. Certainly air up if you will be driving fast.
Id run my BFGs all summer every year at 15-20lbs around town. Aired up for the highway, though
Sand flea is correct....you do NOT want mud tread for a sand truck.
The idea is to float not dig.
A 2 door jeep with all terrain tread nittos puts very little weight per sqaure inch on the sand so you dont have an issue.
That suburban puts waaay more weight per square inch of tread on the...
I run them on my 07 sequoia. For 99.9% of what most people see in winter they are amazing for a non-dedicated winter tire like a nokkian or blizzak. They easily beat out my ko2s on all facets of on-road driving....until you get in the really deep stuff like 8"+ of snow. Highly recommend.
If you dont have a winch and you get stuck and cant back it out, the most valuable tool you can have is a 1ft piece of 2x12..
Dig down so you can fit your jack under jeep....put 2x12 under jack to give firm footing...jack up....fill hole under tire...jack down. Now, let the air out that you...
the 'steel' in the plastic one is just a hair thicker than Reynold's Wrap aluminum foil. it isnt transferring any energy anywhere...it is just gonna go pop!
depending on what you buy, the aluminum can be pretty thick. i know the rockhard4x4 one would take quite a wallop to shear it and it will...
well, like a dope, i didnt realize it til after i had the bumper on and tried to close the rear door!
quick order to get the carrier.
i, too, wish they had put the cut out in. after spending so much coin, i didnt want to spend another $150
but it is what it is.. and i am happy with the quality
